WNBA Mock Draft Monday, version 2.0

There’s nothing like postseason play to flip the WNBA draft completely on its head.

What many view as a second season, whether it’s the NCAA Tournament or the Women’s National Invitation Tournament (WNIT), provides opportunities for players: They can either reaffirm their worth or increase their draft stock. They can also lose their footing in speculative draft priority if their post-season play falters. There has been much of all of this going on the last five days, since March Madness began last Friday.

Washington’s Kelsey Plum remains the top pick after a 29-point first-round tournament showing Saturday—her average for a night. Brionna Jones jumps to the second spot because she seems unstoppable, spearheading Maryland’s run so far. Tori Jankoska jumped a few spots, because even though Michigan State lost in the first round, she left it all on the floor with 26 points. She is a force to be reckoned with.

Entering this version of the draft is NC State guard Miah Spencer. She has been a solid offensive contributor with a high assists average. In Sunday’s match up with Texas, Spencer couldn’t have fought any harder. She put up a career-high 33 points before fouling out just before game’s end, and though she was visibly upset, she maintained her composure in the face of controversial officiating. She would be a great addition to any team.
